Hit for the cycle on June 13, 1918, in only his sixth career game (the quickest player to do it in MLB history).[1]
On May 30, 1922, the Cardinals were playing a Memorial Day doubleheader at Cubs Park. Between games, Heathcote was traded for Max Flack. Both men appeared in both games that day.[2][3]
On August 25, 1922, when the Cubs and the Philadelphia Phillies played to a 26–23 Cubs win, Heathcote set a modern National League record by reaching base seven times in a nine-inning game, and set the record (which has since been surpassed) for most runs scored in a single major league game. He went 5-for-5 (3 singles, 2 doubles) that day, also walking twice, while driving in four runs and scoring five.[4]
1926: 10 HR, 98 runs, 141 hits, and 33 doubles in 139 games – all career-highs.
